Cardinal Cody
Funeral CHICAGO (NC) services were held yesterday at Holy Name Cathedral for Car dinal John Cody, 74, who died last Sunday, apparently of car diac arrest. Burial was at Mt. Carmel Cemetery, Hillside, III.,' a Chicago suburb. , Father John R. Keating, 48, archdiocesan chancellor, has been named administrator by the archdiocesan board of con sultors. He will direct day-to day operations of the huge Chic ago see until Cardinal Cody's success?r is appointed. The cardinal, who had suffer ed from heart problems, had been hospitalized several times in the last year, including a period from Dec. 22, 1981, to ,Jan. 16, 1982, when he was re leased briefly to celebrate Christ mas Eve midnight Mass. His leadership of the Chicago
Archdiocese's 2.5 million Cath olics was marked both by achievements and controversy including accusations from some priests and lay people n',at the cardinal did not consult or com municate with others. In one instance he aroused ire when the archdiocese announced . plans to close' schools serving minority children, although the archdiocesan school board had asked that the closings be sus pended. A statement in the car dinal's name announcing the res cission of powers of the arch diocesan school board to review requests for school closings was read to the Chicago priests' sen ate, which criticized the car dinal's actions. But Cardinal Cody also ap proved subsidies to keep inner city schools open, even when i5 percent of the schools' enroll
ment was non-Catholic. And the cardinal was a leading voice against racism in the city. In recent months he drew at· tention when the Chicago Sun Times reported in September 1981 that he was the subject of a federal grand jury investiga tion to determine whether he had improperly channeled church funds for the use of his 'step cousin Helen Dolan Wilson. The Sun-Times also reported expenditures by Mrs. Wilson far exceeding her income and de posits by Cardinal Cody during the same period of more than $1 million into two unaudited bank accounts under his personal con trol. ' The Chicago Archdiocese de nied that there had been any misuse' of church funds and Car dinal Cody called the Sun-Times .Turn to Page Six

In the Infanta Prelature the formation of basic communities of worshippers is one way social action projects have been stimu lated. The communities "are formed in prayer" and then "to, go through a social analysis of our situation," said the bishop. The analysis leads to "organizing farmers and workers," "We mobilize the community to form pressure groups to get what is rightfully theirs," he added. Although the communities help in the organizing of action oriented groups, they avoid di rect political action, the bishop said. Instead, tlJley "act as a leaven, a real catalyst, to make" the pressure groups '''more visible," he said.

A Matter ,of Equity Last week, in the appropriate setting of the National Catholic Educational Association convention in Chicago, President Reagan once more lived up to his campaign pledge of supporting tuition' tax credits for parents whose children attend parochial/private schools. Under the president's plan, tax credits, phased in over three years, would be granted for half the tuition paid for ,each child in a nonpublic school. Reagan stated t!tat this was a "matter of equity." The president's tui~ion tax credit program should first and foremost be. seen as a means of applying America's freedoms fairly and impartially. This "matter of equity" is the most significant aspect of the proposed legislation. Tuition tax credits, no matter how helpful to the pocketbook, should not become a mere monetary issue, just another budget item. These credits must become an issue of rights and' freedoms seen in the light of constitutional guarantees. No .American should be penalized because he or she supports objectives set forth by our founding fathers. Millions of Catholics support public education willingly and generously. These same people also seek religious liberty. When they exercise that liberty by sending their children to parochial school, they are chastised and casti: gated, often by offici~ls whom they have helped elect. Following the address by the president, anti-parochial school forces began concerted attack on the credits concept. Such familiar groups as the American Civil Liberties Union and Albert Shanker's American Federation of Teachers have moved into high gear to def~at any effort to help parents of parochial school children exercise their right of equal choice. 'Many of ~is disciples went back an~ walked no more with him.' John 6:67 They have been. joined by many of the so-called fiberal members of the House and Senate, who intend to wage a ' very bitter struggle on this issue.

Last fall I wrote a column about the injustice both to religious and laity working in the professional church over the issue of religious sti pends. One thing led to another and I was invited to be part of a retreat weekend focusing on improved women's relationships within the church, including lay-religious and women-clergy communications. There were 45 participants, most church pro fessionals: directors of religious education, liturgists, theologians, teachers and family directors. A bishop, 'a sister and U comprised the teaching team. It was a valuable weekend in all but one respect: only women attended. We talked about im proving relationships between women and church without any men present. The question kept returning - where were the men? Not a single priest, deacon or layman could free himself for the weekend; yet women in all sorts of weekend ministry and women with children at home were able to do so. I can't help but believe that if it had been a clergy or dea con weekend the men would have found a way to get there. I experience the same frustra tion whenever a diocese or par ish offers anything on fami'ly.

Nuclear morality
In an April 17 talk at Gorge town University's Center for Strategic and International Stud ies in Washington, D.C., Secre tary of State A'lexander M. Haig presented an impressive case for nuclear deterrence. He began: "It is a melancholy fact of the modern age that man has conceived a means capable of his own destruction. For 37 years mankind has had to live with the terrible burden of nu clear weapons ... It is right that each succeeding generation should question anew the man ner in which its leaders exercise such awesome responsibilities." Haig was very careful in his remarks on the morality of these weapons. He said that it is un realistic to believe that the So viets will agree to reduce the number of their multiwarheadea intercontinentaI missiles unless persuaded that they must do so to keep the United States from deploying similar systems. The issue is a moral one. Haig
said that confronted by the perils of the world situation, Am erica has responded in a manner that best preserves both security and peace; that protects our so ciety and our values; and that offers hope without iUusion. The bflsic issue however is not yet clear. There are angles of . the problem that demand close and painful scrutiny, especially the problem of the morality of
the use of nuclear weapons. We are living duri'ng a revolu tion in moral values. A new value system is developing and the problem is to discover which of ~hese new values actually represents basic Christian values. I have in mind a number of changing values that, I feel, are "signs of the times," phenomena that are occurring so constantly and pervasively in our culture . that they indicate the presence of God. For instance, there is the wide spread recognition and advocacy of the dignity of the· human per son. That dignity is implicit in all the New Testament teachings on salvation. Then there is the desire for the good life; people who want the good life for themselves and for others. Often they display Ii strong sense of community re sponsibility even in their care of the environment. Many today, especially young people, believe in the right of social protest. The blind obedi ence of my younger days has been replaced by reasonable obedience.
I reaHze there are some young sters who talk a blu~ streak about the moral revolution of our times: Some of the talk is full of zany ideas but much is quite healthy. In any event, there is a moral quest that characterizes our times. This quest has found its way into the discussion of many of the important public issues that affect our lives.. So it is interesting to note

Hunthausen is not your run-of the-mill tax rebel, of which there is a growing number in the country, for a number of reasons. He is a Catholic archbishop of the archdiocese of Seattle. He suggested to Christians last spring that they withhold 50 per cent of their taxes to protest in creased- spending on the arms race. None of his flock, which is in the heart of the military-indus trial complex, has publicly fol lowed his example. But His Ex cellency practiced what he preached and with his' Form 1040/ES1;1982 he enclosed a check for $125, half the amount due.

ever passed. It provides for con scientious military tax objectors to put the "military tax portion" of their returns into the Peace Fund. :aut is is not law yet, and His Eminence could go to jail if the IRS decided to make an example of him. It poses something of a dilemma. No administration would want to send a red hat to the slammer. But about 75 per cent of the American people share his views about the arms race, and they could, if frustra . ted, start following his lead. Prosecution could be as dicey as nabbing the thousands who have failed to register for the draft. Hunthausen supports the nu clear freeze, Ground Zero Week and the new "no first use" of nu clear weapons initiative. He is one of the interdenominational group of Seattle clergymen who engaged in extensive dialogue with members of the Washington state legislature in the hope of persuading it to pass a freeze resolution. Many Americans share the archbishop's vie.ws, although not his .courage. The fear of the sound of the tax collector's step on the stair' runs deep. The terror of the IRS' audit stays their re bellion. Some take the coward's way of dodging taxes, which is charities, some of which blunt policies they find odious. For instance, if you contribute to Amnesty International, you know they will turn in oppressive countries and help make the Reagan administration a little self-conscious on the subject of human rights. Closer to home, if you .give to a scholarship, you counter in a small way Reagan's assault on coBege studellt loans. It's the wimp's tax revolt - and deductible, of course. J The income tax forms are voluminous. But nowhere on them is a place where a person such .as Archbishop Hunthausen could specify what he did not want his money used for. There is no way, for instance, where you could tell the IRS you would rather see a food stamp recipient have a vodka on you than have your money go to a manufac turer of poison gas. There's no "preference" blank where you can write in: "Do not spend one dime finding a home for the MX - take care of orphans." Only one small box is set aside for choice. It asks you if you want $1 to go to a fund for presi dential election campaigns. It is not enough. The archbishop is using his tax return as a we~pon in the battle against nuclear war. He is telling Ronald Reagap that until he listens to what th~ country is trying to tell him about nuclear morality, he will get only half his allowance.

WASHINGTON (NC) A committee of the U,S. bishops has recommended that more church ministries, "perhaps in cluding the diaconate," be open ed to women. It called for "re
view" of the Vaticari's 1976 declaration stating that women cannot be ordained priests. The committee said that "a sexist attitude . . . is pervasive among members of the church and its leadership" and asked. "Does the hierarchical nature of the church necessarily have to be patriarchal?"
The observations are in a 13 page report, released by the Na
tional Conference of Catholic Bishops April 27, on the last
three sessions of a dialogue be· tween the Women's Ordination Conference and the Bishops'
Cpmmittee on Women in Society and the. Church of the NCCB. Following six meetings with the Women'S Ordination Confer ence, the bishops' committee
said it was explofing ways to ex: pand its dialogue to include more
bish9PS and other women's
groups. It also recommended
that "Christians at all levels en·
gage in an on-going. dialogue a
reflection on the issue of justice and equality for women."
The committee said, "We be
lieve such dialogue will reveal
the existence of sexist attitudes.
Granted the traditional teaching excluding women from priestly ordination, there are significant levels of the church's ministry
which could be open~d up. to
women, perhaps including the
diaconate." '
On the 1976 document from
the Vatican's doctrinal congre
gation, made public in January 1977, which reaffirmed the tra ditional church exclusion of wo men from the priesthood, the committee urged a review coin
the light of the insights of mod
ern anthopology, sacramental
theology, a,nd the practice and . experience of women ministefing in our American culture." "We believe,',' it added, "that the study would result in illum inating and developing the church's teaching from revela tion and tradition relative to the ordination of women." Copies of the new report were sent to all U.S. bishops by Bish op Michael F. McAuliffe of Jeff erson City, Mo., chairman, of the bishops' committee.
New rector BOSTON (NC) - Father Den nis F. Sheehan, 42, former di· rector of the institute for con tinuing theological studies at the North American College in Rome, has been named rector of Pope John XXIII National Seminary in Weston, Mass. A native. of Marblehead, he is an alumnus of St. John's Sem· inary, Brighton, and the North American College. He also has graduate degrees from the Gre gorian University in Rome. He succceeds Fath~r James W. DeAdder at the seDlinary, first in America devoted exclusively to preparing older men for the priesthood.

The rosary Dear Editor: Shortly we will be entering the month of May dedicated to Our Blessed Mother. Pope John Paul will be at Fati ma on May 13. Wouldn't it be a consoling thought if our shepherds, our priests, would intertwine with the Sunday Gospel the power and value of the holy rosary; a de votion recommended by the pope and Our Blessed Lady at Lour des, Fatima, Pompeii, etc. The promises made to HI. Alano da Rocha, OP, by Our Lady might be mentioned, there by giving a boost to the faithful to pray the rosary. One promise was: "Tho~e devoted to my ro sary wiU enjoy my special pro tection. Those who recommend themselves to me through the rosary will not lose their souls." We need peace desperately; we see nuclear death staring us in the face. In the six apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima, she urged the dally rosary to "obtain peace; peace of soul, peace among men and-peace with God." One of the most satisfying books on the holy rosary is "The Secret of the Rosary" by St. Louis de Montfort. It is only 116 pages. Would that it was avail able in every parish. We can dream, .can't we? Manuel Maria Santos New Bedford
Alcohol Dear Editor: In six short paragraphs, Rev. Joseph P. McDermott (Anchor, March 12) capsu!ized the evils of a>Jcohol, and in his most poi gnant paragraph he stated: "Pos sibly this is because most of us enjoy a drink and are afraid to face its power for destruction." Indeed, we are afraid to face its power for destruction, and we have a .Jot of company. At the head of our 'large apocalyptic battalion is the prince of dark ness himself, aided and abetted by our government that hungers for the taxes alcohol garners, the capitalists and legislators that think only of profits, including all branches of media, and finally those of us who abuse it for rea sons which often have 'little sem- . blance to rationaHty. iU's difficult to comprehend the daily destruction wrought by the 1ethal, legal kickapoo joy juice. In additiQn to the crimes alluded to by Chaplain McDermott, there can be included broken homes, teenage sex, ,unwanted pregnan cies, venereal disease and van dalism. The ,last ,time I heard any warnings on the evHg of alcohol from the pulpit was in the 1930s by ,the 'late gifted priest and orator, Rev. Patrick Quinn. At my confirmation the dIass was asked b~ Bishop James Cassidy to take a vow of abstinence from 8ilcohol until we had reached the age of 21. It was difficult to keep that vow, but beyond any doubt in my mind it

aslied t~. unite around pope
WASHINGTON (NC) - Father P,olo D!'lz~a, pal'ally _appointed head of the Society of Jesus, has asked the world's Jesuits to pre pare for choosing a new superior general by developing "a. deep internal unity" based on adher ence to papal directives. He warned Jesufts not to en gage in factional pOlitics, in theo logical· writing. and teaching op posed to papal teaching, or in "public criticism and contro versy" within the church. At the same time he stressed the need for. Jesuits to adapt their apostolates to current needs, to promote justice vigor ously as "an integral part of evangelization," and to "pro mote theological investigation" within the framework of fidelity to church teaching. The message from Father Dez~ za, whom Pope John Paul II ap poin~ed last October as his per sonal delegate to govern the order until it elects a new gen eral to succeed ailing Father Pedro Arrupe, came in' a March 25 letter to the world's Jesuits. The letter, with a lengthy ap
pendix outlining specific direc tives, was ,released in W~shing ton by Father John J. O'Calla ghan. president of the U.S. Jes uit Conference. In the letter Father Dezza asked the order's 26,622 priests, brothers and scholastics to "re view our lives in the light of the holy fatlter's challenge to us.'" He said i that the directives, drawn from papal statements to the order arid from an extraordinI , ary meeting of Jesuit provincial superiors near Rome in Febru..... ary, are nQt new, "even though they have riot always been faith fully observed." In a separate covering letter to Jesuit provincials, Father Dez za asked each to report in Sep tember on what had been done in his province to follow up on the February meeting.. Father <;>'Callaghan said he' was confident that Jesuits "will respond positively to Father Dezza's call for internal unity . . . despite the problems posed by differences of race, culture, mentality ~nd, as Father Dezza noted with' particular emphasis,
of age in a rapidly changing world." ,. Father O'Callaghan warned against reading too much into papal cautions to the Jesuits. saying that because of situations and needs in different parts of the world. such cautions often apply directly only to certain local situations. "
He also said that the pope's words to the order must be understood in the context of other papal statements on the same topic. "For instance, the holy father's concern that Jesuits not confuse priestly work with the work of a social worker or politician must be read in the light of his March 12 talk at Assisi, when he told· Italian priests to 'get out of the sacristies' and urged Italian bishops to become 'an active presence in. -the various move ments and structures of social life," the American Jesuit said. "Clearly the. pope is not asking us to withdraw from the world - which would be most un Jesuit."

At 'DCCW convention luncheon in Hyannis
Ground Zero covered UoS.
uestion corner By Father John Dietzen Q. My question is about Jesus. Is this his first or his last name? We usually refer to him as Jesus Christ, but I've read some spirit ual books that call him Christ Jesus, or even other gorms of Jesus. Why are these different names used? (pa.) A. First, let's look at those two names themselves. The name Jesus is one form of several simi iar Hebrew names (Joshua, Yes hua, etc.) all of which loosely mean "Yahweh (God) is "Savior," or "The salvation of Yahweh." Luke tells us, that this is the name given our Savior at the an nunciation to Mary. It is also the name told to Joseph, "You are to name him Jesus because he will save his people from their sins." (Mt. 1:21) "Christ" is not a last name in our sense of this word. It is rather the English (and Latin and Greek) equivalent of the Hebrew word "messiah," the anointed one - that is, the expected one who would be chosen or anointed by God as the king and Lord who would save his people. Our word christening' is still used occasionally for baptism, since anointing with oil is part of that ceremony. We find aU combinations of those names in the New Testa ment. Jesus is there, of course, though our Lord is referred to by that name alone very few times. Jesus Christ occurs several times though the English often quite correctly renders the sec ond word as an adjective, "Jesus the Christ." The reversal of those names also appears a couple of times, as in, "There is no condemnation now for those who are in Christ Jesus." (Rom. 8:1) By far the most frequent desig nation for our Lord in the New Testament, however, which ap pears dozens' of times, is simply the name Christ. The use of this title as a proper name for Jesus became common very early after the resurrection. All of these are still perfectly proper, though the fonn "Christ Jesus" is found most often in more formal literary or liturgical works. Q. I am seeking a dissolution of my marriage. My husband and I were married 10 years ago and were blessed with two children. We had major problems. particu larly In connection with his drinking. I couldn't get him to any counseling; he said the priest who married us told him the mar riage wouldn't last anyway. He threatened me verbally and physically, and even loaded a shotgun which he threatem!d to
use on me. Would this dissolu tion make it possible for me to be married in the Catholic Church again, should I meet someone 1 care a~ut? (Iowa) A. You are' not entirely clear on wha~ you mean. by a dissolu tion. If you are referring to an annulment that might be granted through a Catholic marriage tri bunal, tJ'lere's no obstacle to your marrying someone else once that
annulment is dec.Jared. An annulment means that no genuine marriage ever existed between the two people, so there's nothing, at least from that direction, that would pre vent marriage to another: You never definitely state whether or not you and your husband have a civil divorce. Such a divorce, without action on your case by your diocesan marriage tribunal, would not, of course, allow your remarriage in the Catholic Church. In addition, tribunals nO""tllally do not accept cases for annul ment until a civil divorce is final. This policy prevents legal compli cations which could otherwise easily occur. If you. have not already done so, please go to a priest in your area, explain your circumstances, and follow his advice. He will help you through the required annulment process. Questions for this column should be sent to Father Dietzen, St. Mark's Parish, '1113 W. Brad ley, Peoria, 01. 61606.

Tax protests
By NC News Service Signs of American concern over nuclear war were mixed in April, with .new religious pro tests against the nuclear anns race but light turnouts for grass roots events around the country designed to make people more aware of what would happen in a nuclear holocaust. Nevertheless, during Ground Zero Week, April 18-25, tens of millions of Americans learned more about the harsh facts of nuclear war through newspapers and television. Organizers estimated that over a million people personally at attended thousands of local Ground Zero Week events held in cities, colleges and schools around the country. Coincidentally, Ground Zero was the week during which the Fall· River Diocesan Council of Catholic Women adopted a reso lution urging outlawing of nu clear weaponry. (Story on page one) "We weren't flashy, but we got people talking to people about the dangers of nuclear war," said Ground Zero's national director Roger C. Molander, a fonner arms control specialist with the .National Security Council. He called it "the !iugest simul taneous learning experience about the threat of nuclear war that Americans have ever ex perienced." The week -named after the military tenn for the hit point of a nuclear bomb - was aimed for the most part j 81 study and serious discussion rather than mass demonstrations or media coverage. In Spokane, Wash., for ex ample, Bishop Lawrence Welsh designated the week's opening day as a diocesan Day of Peace. The diocesan newspaper, the Inland Register, published a special educational section on nuclear issues. In Mississippi, Bi!!hop Joseph Brunini of Jackson and Auxiliary Bishop Wililam Houck joined other religious leaders in warn· ing that most U.S. cities are like ly targets in a nuclear war and urging citizens to study the morality of nuclear weapons. More typical of religious in volvement in the week, however, were meetings such as one at Dartmouth College, Hanover,
N.H., which featured a panel on the moral issues of nuclear warfare, or the sponsorship of a week-long series of e~ents in Spokane by Jesuit-run Gonzaga University. . The major media event in local Ground Zero markers at central locations in cities all over the country and explanations of what would happen to the city if a nuclear bomb were dropped there - drew heavy newspaper, radio and television coverage. In some cities, Ground Zero
marker placement was followed by a "run for your life" in which runners were given up to half an hour - a likeiy advance warning of an all-out nuclear
attack - to try to get outside
the ci.rcle of virtually certain
death from a one megaton nu clear bomb.

What they eventually be come, however, is essentially be tween him and them; He may have roles for them to play in life which appear to us as problem-filled paths to fail ure. But we recognize that God loves our children and his love will not be denied. As parents, God asks two things Of us. 1.

ject of death. The average per son prefers to deal in "middle language." He likes to,think and talk about his next meal, his next piece of wearing apparel, his next trip, his next pay raise, or the next election. The larger WHY and WHO are studiously avoided. Walter Kaufman has summed it up very well: "We regularly emphasize the accidental cause of death, the mishap, the disease, the infection, the advanced age, and thus betray our eagerness to denote death from a necessity to a mere accident." At the very heart of tile universe, and we must remember this in our mo ments of affliction, is a never fai'ing fountain of mercy and comfort. This is what I tried to impress on the, three letter writers. What else can one say? Someone said that ,God meets, us on a family, rather than on a legal ba~is. His dealings with us are parental. We are not under the law, but under grace. This. means' that what is at the center of the spiritual universe is not overbearing power, nor calcula ting' justice, but overwhelming love.
